issue
yesterday, a strangely silent phone all day in town.
tried calling my mobile and low and behold, they did a divert all, for ever, not a divert on no answer, nice to have a day off, but filled up the voice mail at home with irate customers.
call 4:
me : authanticate + authenticate again ...enter pin and whats your pin...
me: hi, the divert does not work, you've set it to divert all....so my cellphone NEVER rings (which is nice)......
vf: ok, we'll change that from divert all, to divert no answer.
me: great thanks
